Flowers, food, and everyday life

3 people I hate to listen to….

Because what they say is so scary and because they are so often correct. Those 3 people are Glenn Beck, Robert Spencer, and Brigitte Gabriel. I have Beck’s channel on the television and subscribe to his computer resources, I’ve read Spencer’s books and his website Jihad Watch, and I’ve occasionally seen Gabriel on Cavuto and read her website Act for America.

They all 3 disturb my serenity and prevent sound sleep. Beck tore through ObamaCare and revealed much troublesome regulation. He was right on the mark from the very beginning on Arab Spring. He long ago predicted the Christian Apocalypse in the Middle East and that there will come a time when Christians will take a great risk by admitting their religion there and in Europe, and to a lesser extent here.

Spencer is considered a terrorism expert and has accurately predicted every step of the Iranian nuclear development and the United Nations role.

Gabriel has Middle Eastern heritage and written a book but I remember her best for her early warning of Al-Shabaab and the Somali immigrants in the United States.

Here’s some links. It would be nice to know some of you are sharing my sleepless nights, alert to these very scary but largely ignored threats. Have we fallen into a pre-9/11 sensibility, with someone worse than even Bill Clinton – who failed to take out bin Laden, fumbled on Bosnia, kicked the can on Saddam Hussein, failed to appreciate our military, and diverted our attention with his narcissistic scandals – as our president now?

Liberals, of course, have done nothing but ridicule these 3 for years as out of touch extremists. I confess that sometimes I don’t want to believe them or wonder how much is factual or if they really are extreme. This weekend “extremism” seemed close. The left always labels as “extreme” anyone who doesn’t uphold their ideology.

Glenn Beckhttp://www.theblaze.com/ Beck may be the least ideological, most independent thinker out there in national news. He’s as much libertarian as conservative, he’s expanding his news domain, he’s intelligent, he’s forward-thinking on using technology, and he’s fearless. I don’t always agree with him, but I sometimes learn a lot and he’s interesting, as is much of his team.

Brigitte Gabriel is the real deal, a former Lebanese resident whose family fled the country when radical Islam fundamentalists became increasingly powerful there. She has spent years trying to warn America that radical Islam is a real threat, and that our desire to please Muslims and treat CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood and other groups, as well as radical mosques and schools, as moderates is playing into those radical hands. She has a strong accent, talks fast and is very excitable, which doesn’t always play well on national television shows that want to do quick sound bites, but she is rock solid. http://www.actforamerica.org/
